Christopher P. • July 6, 2016It's a large museum with a large international variety of art. Exquisite portraits of American Presidents and a large collection of Rembrandt's make this a must see for anyone trolling around the mall

@chowbelle • April 27, 2018EVERYTHING! The museum is so dense, plan at least three full days to give yourself a chance of seeing it all.

Mark B. • June 26, 2015Fantastic museum. Free to the public. Lots of oils, water colors and sculptures from lots of the Masters.Great collection in beautiful setting. Can be a maze so definitely take a map or the audio tour

Isabelle R. • January 30, 2014It's a Respectful place for remember our Heros! Super awesome!

Harjit • April 24, 2013It can get pretty warm in here. Nice exhibits but the animals are scarce and hard to find.

Aniruddha M. • July 28, 2015Information warehouse for the curious mind. Highly recommend as a family outing place. Kids love it.

Chrisi W. • June 13, 2011Great little theater! A little warm inside though so be prepared to shed a layer in the summer!

Michelle P. • October 8, 2017Beautiful theatre, seating a little tight though. Dave Chappell show--he was on point as expected, laughed the whole time. Opening act was excellent.

Cristella T. • January 25, 2014It was awesome, Saturday mornings are free because its a free show specifically for children

Lauren O. • January 22, 2012Two Men of Verona is a great show! The modern twists are fun. The acting is superb! And the lead actors are hot and shirtless ;)

Sarah K. • March 2, 2013Can't complain about the food! Nice selection of international cuisine (and more "American" things). Great for a brunch or lunch in a nice space, thought it could very well be loud when busy.

Richard L. • September 3, 2012There isn't a bad seat in the house! Try getting tickets in the mezzanine if you're on a budget. Seats 116,117,118,119 are great in any row up there!

George Z. • April 4, 2016The tours and the collection of art you could,spend weeks learning about various,artists
